Great price for this sort of quality. Original radio!

Had a few hours free so made a start on the rear brakes over the weekend. Decided to go down a fairly straightforward 'bolt-on' style method which retained the factory handbrake cable. Not the cheapest option in the end (circa $1500) as I went with new brake calipers but all in all not too bad. I utilised the Milkfab kit (Rear Disk Brake Kit - Datsun 240z/260z/280z (milkfab-engineering.com)) and ordered some new StopTech brake calipers (this kit uses single piston calipers from a 05-14 mustang). The only modification required was to redrill the rotors from a 5-stud pattern to a 4-stud. Luckily this didn't need to be absolutely precise to the hub-centric nature of the hubs and rotors. The adaptors themselves bolt on nicely and are a quality product - well engineering and nice powdercoat finish. Will complete the other side, connect up the brake lines and handbrake cable and test them out!
